Best Bet: Lecture on Louis Sullivan's art

NEWARK - A free public lecture, titled “The Art and Artistry of Louis Sullivan,” will be presented by Eileen Grogan, Director of Historic Preservation at Conrad Schmitt Studios of New Berlin, Wisconsin. It will take place from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 12 in Alford Performing Arts Hall located at 1209 University Drive.

Given the artistic quality of the Louis Sullivan Building of Newark, great care has been taken in designing a restoration plan for its original features. The presentation will focus on the building's restoration, rehabilitation, and a preservation plan for its interior.

The Louis Sullivan Building of Newark was built in 1914 and has been on the Courthouse Square for over a century. It has become known as "The Old Home."

This event is free and open to the public. No reservations are required. For more information, contact Megan Evans at megan@thelcfoundation.org or 740.349.3863.
